Bill Parcells talks 'never happened,' Vikings co-owner says

Minnesota Vikings co-owner Mark Wilf told the Star Tribune on Saturday that the team "never" went after retired coach Bill Parcells and emphasized his support for current general manager Rick Spielman.

The New York Post reported earlier this month that Mark Wilf's brother, Zygi, who also co-owns the team, would give Parcells the keys to the organization to "run the show." NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora quickly shot down that report, citing a source close to the former coach.

On Saturday, Mark Wilf told the Star Tribune the report was false and the team reaching out to Parcells "never happened."
